Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Pkl, a Programming Language for Configuration
> So what we are missing now is a 500GB framework that can write the config file for the programming language that is writing a config file for the actual program I wish to use.
That exists since 1960. It's called LISP. The e.g. https://guix.gnu.org/ uses with great success, the Guile Scheme dialect of LISP, to be precise. And FYI the "framework" is:
$ ls --human-readable --size $(readlink $(which guile))

NixOS: Declarative Builds and Deployments
> inventing a brand new purely functional language programming language.
ISTM that if you dislike that, then there's GUIX.
https://guix.gnu.org/
Very briefly, AFAICT, it's "Nix but using Scheme".

Linux saved my life
And just wait till you discover Arch Linux, Gentoo, Guix, or NixOS.

The nicest web browser of 2023 uses Lisp.
https://guix.gnu.org for example. It did load before an update but it doesn't anymore.

Java community welcomes kotlin, c/c++ community welcome rust and go and Javascript community welcomes typscript except emacs community who still refuse to welcome gnu guile.
Is it? Seems to me it's used for some pretty cool stuff, heard of Guix?

Lua: The Little Language That Could
I think a "competitor" to Lua would be Guile [1], but I am not sure if it gets close to Lua in terms of lightweightness... it was designed to be used in the GNU project, with similar objects as Lua: to be light, easily embeddable. It's a Scheme (Lisp) so maybe not for everyone's taste... its "coolest" use i know of is for configuring Guix [2] (the GNU version of Nix).

What are some of the more innovative linux distributions?
GNU Guix! A fully functional package manager and distro heavily inspire by Nix. The primary difference between it and Nix being that it is almost entirely written and configured in GNU Guile, an implementation of Scheme (Lisp) and the official extension language of the GNU Project (originally intended to be for GNU what emacs lisp is for emacs).

Rust Offline?
You should perhaps utilize guix for your projects. It provides rather acceptable rust resp. crates support and in a perfectly reproducible build environment. But be aware, that it even tries to build even the rust compiler from source by going through all this nasty steps of its iterative bootstrap process. This can be a little bit complex and time-consuming, if you need an up-to-date version of rustc.

Supermium – Chromium fork for Win 2003 and newer
If that's a concern for you, there are themes for GTK3 and GTK4 that replicate classic 3D widgets and remove much of the excess padding in modern apps. https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-95 https://github.com/grassmunk/Chicago95 (You should install both; Chicago95 is more actively developed, but B00merang gives you a GTK+4 theme that's currently missing from Chicago95.) Works reasonably well as a daily-driver, giving you a similar look to the modern SerenityOS GUI on a standard Linux system. Even the modern GTK+4 "responsive" apps work as designed, with some non-critical graphical quirks.

OS/2 Warp, PowerPC Edition
I bloody want my Linux and apps on it to look like this or something of this flavour. Most retro themes are poor quality shams (Chicago95[1] is the only good one, yet still not perfect). I feel like I would gladly pay serious money for a really high quality conversion of all the parts, including themes for all widget libraries and no quirks.
